Very good customer service' very helpful. They will return your telephone call if busy ASAP. Only previous problem is in duplicating paperwork, when the cruise line have already got the information they ask for it again instead of checking all is in order with the cruise company.

Another happy customer !

My enquiry was handled quickly and efficiently. When I called back to confirm my interest and Emily was engaged on another call, she called me back shortly thereafter as promised. All my questions were answered during the process and my available Cruise Miles were credited against the order !

Day 3

Keelung, Taiwan

20 Jan 2020

Taiwan, also known as Formosa, has always been on the outskirts of the Chinese Empire, although significant Chinese migration did not occur until the 15th century when people of Fujian province just across the Taiwan Strait began migrating to the island in ever increasing numbers. In 1949, when the Communists gained control of the mainland, Chiang Kai-shek and the Kuomintang (KMT) fled to Taiwan, taking with them their flag, constitution, and the vow to retake the mainland, not to mention about 1.5 million people. Born out of a civil war, Taiwan's status is still ambiguous - is it an independent nation or a province of China. The natural, deep-water harbour of Keelung (or Chi-lung) is an important commercial, military and fishing port, whilst at the same time serving as a strategic, natural safeguard to the whole Taipei area. Keelung City's history includes Spanish and Dutch occupation during the 17th century. From this period remain several ruined forts. Keelung Port is 28 miles (45 km) from the capital Taipei. The drive may take from 50 to 60 minutes depending on traffic.

Day 6

Manila, Philippines

23 Jan 2020

The city sprawls eastward from Manila Bay. Its streets range from multi-lane boulevards to maze-like alleys. In this metropolis of 12 million, the contrast between spacious well-maintained elite communities like Forbes Park and overcrowded slum areas such as Tondo is immense. Occupied over the decades by the Spanish, Americans, British and Japanese, East now meets West, giving the city its unique character. The Walled City, a medieval fortified town, was the heart and soul of the country for more than 300 years. This city fortress, surrounded by moats and turreted walls 30 feet thick, was known as Intramuros. Only members of the Castilian upper class, friars, soldiers and government administrators were privileged to live inside the walls; natives had to live in the outlying boroughs.

Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

27 Jan 2020 to 29 Jan 2020

Ho Chi Minh City, the “Pearl of Vietnam” was formerly known as Saigon, a name that is still applied to the city center. The official name change took place in 1976, following the reunification of the country. Located in the south of Vietnam on a giant bend in the Saigon River, Ho Chi Minh City is the country's largest city, with a population of nearly seven million people and over one million motorbikes. While Hanoi is the center of government, Ho Chi Minh City is the nation's economic heart and most exciting city.
